I’m running OS X 10.6.7 – Firefox 4.0.1 – Safari 5.0.5 and am trying to run 32 bit rate. I’ve gone to get info (both directly and thru above steps) and neither browser offers the “run in 32 bit mode” option. Firefox only offers “Locked” and Safari offers “Open using Rosetta” and “Locked” Am i doing something wrong? (all fields in “Get Info” are titlted open to see all contents)

That should do it, see picture. If not maybe your system is not running in 64-bit mode (Open Activity Monitor) or you don't have administrator privileges.
as you can see i do not have those options - I have admin rights (my home comp) and i opened Activity Monitor but i could not find the info (i feel incredibly stupid). thanks for any futher help you can give me! 🙂
Look under the "Kind" column has the info on your apps running in what mode.
sorry for delay in responding - a few issues - first site was down then cat decided keyboard was thirsty. so had to go out to buy new keyboard (the fun never ends). i went to kind and still no info only says intel. Or am i STILL doing something wrong- maybe i'm hopeless and am destined not to be able to use 32 bit mode? (as you can tell i'm no techie!)
